1. Introduction 1.1. Project/Component Working Name: Intel 82575 1Gb PCI Express NIC Driver 1.2. Name of Document Author/Supplier: Author: Ted You 1.3 Date of This Document: 30 October, 2007 4. Technical Description This case adds support for Intel 82575 1Gb PCI Express Adapter Driver into ON. The architecture of the Intel 82575 1Gb PCI Express Adapter differs significantly from the old Intel PRO/1000 adapters, which are supported by the e1000g driver. So a new driver igb(7D) is required. Intel has software license agreement with Sun to allow Sun integrate this driver and distribute the software in both source, and binary object code forms. This SLA also grants Sun the right to make modification to the source code and distribute the modified driver in open source and binary forms. The driver supports x86/x64 and SPARC platform. The vendor ID and device ID of the chips supported are: pciex8086,10A7 pciex8086,10A9 pciex8086,10D6 Interface Table +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | NAME | STABILITY LABEL | DESCRIPTION | +------------------------+-----------------------+----------------+ | Interfaces Exported | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | igb | Committed | Driver name | |------------------------+-----------------------+----------------| | SUNWigb | Committed | Package name | +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Interfaces Imported | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | GLDv3 | Consolidation Private | PSARC/2004/571 | | | | PSARC/2005/396 | +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ 6.
